| Summary: | 碩士 === 義守大學 === 資訊工程學系 === 90 === Internet contains the characteristics of various media, so it is paid much attentions to the application of Internet on health information delivery. Past works almost focus on the research of the development of Internet health information and the behaviors of users. But it lacks of comparison between Internet and traditional health information sources. It is hard to know the impact that Internet has on traditional information sources.
Internet is a decentralized system, so the information quality becomes the most important thing, especially on the searching of health information. The researchers address the Internet health information criteria to guide website setting and information publication. But it still needs users to be quality-keepers. Our study will research the judgment of information users on those criteria.
With structured questionnaire survey, our research compared different health information sources, and found that Internet users have high utility rate at Internet, not excluding other sources, and that the credibility of Internet is low.
Regardless of internet use, samples don’t consider that website design is critical. No-Internet users give higher scores on “using multimedia to delivery health information” than Internet users.
Internet users accept the writing information, so considering the cost and benefit; it is proper to choose the right information delivery system at the right time. In addition, it may be practicable to deliver health information more actively with e─newspapers, and to educate the public to enhance attentions to the health information quality.
